Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): I was born under the loving guidance of my parents. I am a blonde elf that is slightly taller than a human, and slim. They loved me more than anything, as i did them. They taught me all about the merciful creator of the seven skys, and Malin, the father of the elves I was always asking questions about the lore they told me, like how Malin had kids. But they always told me not to ask too many questions. They taught me about the Aenguls and Daemons, the destruction of Aegis, and the finding of Asulon.

At a young age, they taught me the secret to farming and herbalism. I was always excited to learn about the world, but my parents would never let me leave our home which was located on the outskirts of Malinor, telling me of all the dangers the world had. But i had no fear of the world, i wanted to see all there was to see. At the age of 37, i decided it was time for me to leave my home. My curiosity of the outside world was astronomical! My parents begged me to stay, but i had to go. I packed a sack full of bread, and prepared for my journey. My experience in digging and hoeing built my strength, so i was ready for combat using unarmed combat. My parents slipped some cookies in my sack, and the tearful goodbyes began. My mom said she wanted me to visit often, and my dad gave me his favorite hoe, made of diamond.

After leaving, i wandered the forest, alone. I was running low on food, and i couldn't manage to hunt any thing with my bare hands alone. I was determined on finding civilization, and finding some food. On my travels, i ran into another wood elf, Ibanez (TuxedoPenguin1). He gave me a bow and taught me how to hunt, in return for me teaching him how to farm. I gave him some of my bread, he gave me some pork, and we decided to travel together.

We found a small trading community outside of the forest, and we made a meager living farming and hunting before moving on, at the advice of an old wise man. He showed us the way to the cloud sanctuary, which is where we headed. On our way there, we started to see the buildings, architecture, and scenery. I then realized, I am seeing the world! When i get to the sanctuary, i will be 107, with my whole life ahead of me.

Open-Response-Questions

Each and every question must be answered with a minimum of a single full paragraph and entirely in RP.

Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond? I walk up to the warriors and say in a threatening tone, "What's going on here!?". The warriors turn to me and say, "He's in debt to the man who hired us.". Then I give them each 500 minas to settle the debt. The warriors seem shocked at the amount of money i gave each of them. They both say, "That's almost double what he owed!". And i say, "Keep the change, and a word of advice. Harass any one again, and you'll be getting an arrow through the heart, not minas.". So they leave, and i ask the halfling not to get into debt with the wrong people any more. He thanks me and runs away.

Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response? I say, "hello there, might you be selling any arrows?". He responds with an apologetic no, so i ask him if there is any thing i might be able to help him with for a few minas. He says, "Actually, there is something you could do, might you have any farming experience?". I say, "Why yes, i do, do you need seeds or perhaps food?". And he replies with a yes, so i sell him some seeds and bread. As i'm walking away, he thanks me.

Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?: I think about all the dangers that could happen if someone got there hands on that sword, so i take the iron and the sword. I journey to the nearest city, and i give the iron and the sword to a city guard. After I explain the situation, the guard thanks me, and offers me minas for the travel back to my home. I reject his offer, explaining that i would feel bad about taking his minas. He says that same thing about me not taking his minas, so we agree i'll take half of what he offered me. I leave, my pockets jingling with minas, and i feel pretty good.

Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you you in the common tongue, how do you respond? I walk up to there camp and ask if i can buy some arrows and bread for 50 minas. They say 150 minas would be more appropriate. We stand there, haggling for a good 5 minutes before i get my arrows and bread for a satisfying 75 minas. I then ask for directions to the nearest community, and they point me in the right direction. I thank them for their help, and I make haste to the community.

You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?: After hearing that information, my heart swells with happiness at the chance of being a hero! So instead of joining the party, I decide to attack the bandits on the night before the party, taking them by surprise! So at night I sneak over to their camp, and jump out of the shadows and let my battle cry roar out! I engage a few bandits in combat, killing one or two, before i realize, i cannot win. So i run as fast as i can, but one of their archers shoots an arrow, and it goes through my knee! I fall to the ground in anguish, unable to move. But then, i hear screams, and i roll around to see that the party had arrived! They hack and slash through the bandits, and soon, no bandits remained! They took me to the town's clinic where I healed. When i fully healed, I fled in the night, too ashamed to face the town people after my failure.

Anything else you would like to say?: Me and my friend, tuxedopenguin1 (Ibanez) are friends, so that's why are paths cross in the biography.
